The Lap

Join our charismatic hosts, Trent Nikolic and Dominic Wiseman, as they set out on a stunning journey around Australia's legendary 'Big Lap' - a near 14,000km adventure right around the continent.

Heading south from Sydney in a clockwise direction, the eight-part TV series is much more than just a car show, it is an epic travel experience that covers over 13,000 kilometres, and passes through more than 150 unique regional towns and cities.

In partnership with Kia Australia, The Lap shares the experiences of hosts Trent and Dom on their once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the rugged cliffs of the Great Australian Bight and near-infinite expanses of the Nullarbor Plain to the wild outback of the Northern Territory, every destination is a revelation, and every person a new friend.

Tune in on Channel Nine or 9Now to watch The Lap every week – Saturday afternoon at 3:30pm AEST.
